I Tried Walmart's Terrifying Metaverse Experience - Danny Gonzalez
-
0:00 - 0:01Ladies and gentlemen,
-
0:02 - 0:04Walmart has entered the metaverse.
-
0:04 - 0:07(whooping, cheering, clapping noises)
-
0:08 - 0:08Finally.
-
0:08 - 0:09That's right, Greg.
-
0:09 - 0:12Through one of the most popular
children's games in the world, -
0:12 - 0:15Walmart is now an actual destination
in the metaverse -
0:15 - 0:18where you can go to have fun, play, learn,
-
0:18 - 0:19and of course,
-
0:20 - 0:21buy things from Walmart.
-
0:21 - 0:23And that is what I will be doing today.
-
0:23 - 0:25I personally cannot wait to get into
Walmart's metaverse, -
0:25 - 0:28look around, explore,
it looks fun as hell. -
0:28 - 0:30One of the biggest corporations
in the entire world -
0:30 - 0:33advertising to young children in
a video game? -
0:33 - 0:34Uh, let's just say
-
0:34 - 0:35Daddy likey.
-
0:35 - 0:36But before we do that,
-
0:36 - 0:39before I show you the actual
Walmart metaverse experience. -
0:39 - 0:40I was surprised to find out
-
0:40 - 0:43that this actually isn't Walmart's first
metaverse project. -
0:43 - 0:44A few months ago,
-
0:44 - 0:48apparently Walmart was sort of laughed
off the internet -
0:48 - 0:52because this video surfaced demoing
their "vision of the future of shopping" -
0:52 - 0:53in the metaverse.
-
0:53 - 0:58And not only did this failed experiment
not look like it made shopping any better, -
0:58 - 1:00it, like, actively made it worse.
-
1:00 - 1:04You know how instead of like, a store
with colorful aisles full of products -
1:04 - 1:06and people from your community
shopping around, -
1:06 - 1:09you'd much rather shop in a dystopian
void of a Walmart -
1:09 - 1:11that's been abandoned for
a thousand years? -
1:13 - 1:13You d--
-
1:13 - 1:14Oh, you do?
-
1:14 - 1:16Okay, that was meant to be sarcastic
but you actually do? -
1:16 - 1:18Okay, well, then maybe you'll like this.
-
1:18 - 1:21(futuristic synth noise)
-
1:21 - 1:23(industrial door-opening sound)
-
1:23 - 1:25[Woman] Hi! Thanks for visiting Walmart.
-
1:25 - 1:27I will be your shopping
assistant module today, -
1:27 - 1:28but you can call me SAM for short.
-
1:28 - 1:30[Danny] Look man, I already feel like
-
1:30 - 1:34kind of dystopian going to a regular
Walmart in the real world, -
1:34 - 1:37but this actually feels like I'm like a
test subject in some kind of -
1:37 - 1:39psychological experiment.
-
1:39 - 1:41What is this void? Where am I right now?
-
1:41 - 1:42[SAM] Let's get started.
-
1:42 - 1:43I have your shopping list loaded up
-
1:43 - 1:46and I'm tracking your oil change so
I can let you know as soon as it's done. -
1:46 - 1:47[Danny] Now I don't know about you,
-
1:47 - 1:50but when I go to the store, if an employee
asks me if I need help finding anything, -
1:50 - 1:53I say no every time, even
if I DO need help -
1:53 - 1:55because I'm a nervous person.
-
1:55 - 1:58So this?
This scenario is like a nightmare to me. -
1:58 - 2:02Just having an employee floating
2 feet in front of me at all times -
2:02 - 2:05just locking eyes with me,
recommending products, -
2:05 - 2:06is actually a nightmare.
-
2:06 - 2:10It's like my worst-case scenario when I
go to a store, but if it just never ended. -
2:10 - 2:13It also doesn't help that she's like,
literally telling you what to do, -
2:13 - 2:14she's not even making suggestions.
-
2:14 - 2:16[SAM] You see the tomato
sauce on your left? -
2:16 - 2:18Go ahead and grab that and then
place it in your cart. -
2:18 - 2:19[Danny] You see the tomato sauce?
-
2:19 - 2:20Grab it.
-
2:20 - 2:21Put it in your cart.
-
2:21 - 2:23You said you wanted tomato sauce, right?
-
2:23 - 2:23It's right there.
-
2:23 - 2:24Put it in the cart now.
-
2:24 - 2:28There's no time for browsing and
taking your time in the Walmart Metaverse. -
2:28 - 2:29Get your shit
-
2:29 - 2:30and LEAVE.
-
2:30 - 2:33How is this any better than
shopping normally? -
2:33 - 2:37They had every opportunity to make
shopping, like, a breeze, -
2:37 - 2:40Like, I feel like the most
efficient form of shopping -
2:40 - 2:42is ki-- is just like, ordering it online.
-
2:42 - 2:46They didn't need to take the actual
physical experience of going to Walmart -
2:46 - 2:47and put it in VR.
-
2:47 - 2:48If I'm not going to the store anymore,
-
2:48 - 2:53it's like, the actual act of putting
a tomato sauce in my cart -
2:53 - 2:54is not the part I'm gonna miss.
-
2:54 - 2:57It's probably gonna be, like, human
contact, or just, like, -
2:57 - 3:00feeling like I live-- I exist in a
real social world. -
3:00 - 3:01[SAM] Great!
-
3:01 - 3:02Looks like you need a good wine pairing.
-
3:02 - 3:03Take a look to your right.
-
3:03 - 3:04(metallic clink sound)
-
3:04 - 3:07Your age has already been pre-verified
through your profile, -
3:07 - 3:08so no need to wait for an ID check!
-
3:08 - 3:09(bottle crashing)
-
3:09 - 3:10[Danny] I love how in this
supposedly, like -
3:10 - 3:14futuristic utopian version of
Walmart in the future, -
3:14 - 3:17we're already being upsold to buy shit
that we didn't want. -
3:17 - 3:19It's like, "Okay, you wanted pasta sauce,
-
3:19 - 3:20go ahead and buy a wine with that.
-
3:20 - 3:23You can't have pasta sauce
without wine, right? -
3:23 - 3:26And also here's $5 off a
VUDU movie rental, -
3:26 - 3:28you're gonna wanna buy a movie as well.
-
3:28 - 3:29And then, oh, you're watching a movie?
-
3:29 - 3:31Head on over to our gun department.
-
3:31 - 3:32You're gonna want a gun with that movie."
-
3:32 - 3:35Also I haven't even bought pasta,
or meat yet. -
Not SyncedWhy is red wine the thing I need to pair
with the pasta sauce? -
Not SyncedI need the rest of my meal.
-
Not SyncedOr am I just sipping on glass of wine and
one glass of pasta sauce -
Not Syncedwhile I watch my VUDU rental movie?
-
Not Synced[SAM] I'm getting a notification
from your connected smart fridge. -
Not SyncedIt looks like you already have a full
gallon of milk at home. -
Not SyncedShould we put this one back?
-
Not Synced[Danny] Sorry?
-
Not SyncedMy FRIDGE told you that?
-
Not SyncedThe sheer passive aggressiveness in
this Walmart employee's voice. -
Not Synced"Hey, so, um,
-
Not SyncedI noticed you have a gallon of milk
in your cart, but, uh, -
Not SyncedI was just talking to your smart fridge
-
Not Syncedand he told me you already
have milk at home. -
Not SyncedShould we put the milk back?
-
Not SyncedShould wittle baby put the milk back?
-
Not SyncedDid wittle baby forget that
we have milk at home? -
Not Synced(action music)
Did you forget in this dystopian world -
Not Syncedthere's a milk shortage?
-
Not SyncedAre you trying to hoard milk?
-
Not SyncedAlso stop talking to my fridge behind
my back, dude. What the hell? -
Not SyncedWhy are smart fridges so integral to
every corporation's version of the future? -
Not SyncedI do not want my fridge snitching on me
to Walmart, okay? -
Not Synced[Danny] Damn, you can really feel the
anger through the screen in that toss. -
Not Synced"Fine, I'll fucking put the
milk back, dude. -
Not SyncedStop talking to my fridge!"
-
Not SyncedJust every part of this is so eerie.
-
Not SyncedWhat is with the hum
throughout this video? -
Not SyncedThey could've had fun music playing,
you know, -
Not Syncedyou go to like, Target or Walmart
and they're playing, like, Ed Sheeran. -
Not SyncedIt's like they're making it eerie and
dystopian on purpose. -
Not SyncedEvery time you pick up an item
from the shelf -
Not Syncedall of the shelves descend into the
underworld and new shelves come up. -
Not SyncedThat's really comforting, I gotta say.
-
Not SyncedThere's something so comforting
about them being like, -
Not Synced"NO YOU DON'T MOVE, ALRIGHT?
-
Not SyncedTHE SHELVES MOVE.
-
Not SyncedYou stay right where you are.
-
Not SyncedThe milk will come to you.
-
Not Synced(distorted) The gun aisle
will come to you. -
Not Synced[SAM] Good news! Your oil change is done.
-
Not SyncedYour vehicle will be ready at the
Tire and Lube Express. -
Not Synced[Danny] Okay, now wait, so
this is confusing. -
Not SyncedAm I...
-
Not Syncedat a Walmart with a VR
headset on? -
Not SyncedThis whole time I thought this was
something you do from home. -
Not SyncedYou go around, pick out all your items,
-
Not Syncedand then Walmart will come and
drop your stuff off. -
Not SyncedBut she just said that my car's getting
an oil change right now-- -
Not Synced[SAM] Good news! Your oil change is done.
-
Not Synced[Danny] At the Lube Express or whatever?
-
Not Synced[SAM] At the Tire and Lube Express.
-
Not Synced[Danny] The Tire and Lube Express.
-
Not SyncedThat's right, that's what I said.
-
Not SyncedSo...
-
Not SyncedI drove to Walmart,
-
Not Synceddropped my car off at the Tire
and Lube Express, -
Not SyncedAnd then went into Walmart
-
Not Syncedand then just put on a VR headset?
-
Not SyncedAt that point, I-- why can't I just shop?
-
Not SyncedWhy do I need to be wearing a VR headset?
-
Not SyncedI'm so confused.
-
Not Synced(ominous humming and
machine hissing noises) -
Not Synced[Danny] I feel like these hands
say so much -
Not Syncedabout the emotion of the person
watching this happen. -
Not SyncedWould you say that this person is, like,
-
Not Syncedhappy or terrified about
what's going on right now? -
Not Synced(machinery hissing noises,
dark scary piano music) -
Not Synced[SAM] I'll have the TV
brought out to your car. -
Not Synced(confirmation ding)
-
Not Synced(drone hums to life)
-
Not Synced[Danny] Okay, so my shopping cart
is going to my car to load my groceries, -
Not Syncedthis drone is just gonna deliver the TV
straight to my house, -
Not Syncedand then I notice that I'm not leaving
the Walmart? -
Not SyncedI notice that my cart and the TV
get to leave -
Not Syncedand I don't?
-
Not SyncedAny reason for that?
-
Not Synced(dark scary piano music)
"Okay, your groceries will be delievered -
Not Syncedto your smart fridge as a sacrifice,
-
Not Syncedand you will remain here forever.
-
Not SyncedThank you for shopping at Walmart."
-
Not SyncedOkay. I think you guys have
waited long enough. -
Not SyncedYou wanna see the REAL DEAL.
-
Not SyncedThat experiment obviously did not work,
-
Not Syncedpeople were like,
"What the hell is wrong with you? -
Not SyncedOf course we don't want this."
-
Not SyncedSo now it's time to look at Walmart's
-
Not Syncedactual, real-life, currently live venture
into the metaverse. -
Not SyncedWalmart enters the metaverse with Roblox
experiences aimed at young shoppers. -
Not SyncedYoung shoppers, young shoppers,
-
Not SyncedI feel like there's another word for that,
-
Not Syncedanother word that they're not using
for some r-- -
Not SyncedOh, CHILDREN!
-
Not SyncedYeah, that's right, we usually call
young shoppers "children." -
Not SyncedBut I guess at the end of the day
-
Not Syncedchildren are basically just young
shoppers, aren't they? -
Not SyncedCongratulations ma'am,
-
Not Syncedyou've given birth to a beautiful
young male shopper. -
Not SyncedOh, thank you so much!
-
Not SyncedI can't wait for him to grow up and shop
just like his father. -
Not SyncedIsn't that right, sweetie?
-
Not Synced(people talking, dark scary piano music)
-
Not SyncedWalmart is entering the metaverse with two
experiences: -
Not SyncedWalmart Land and Walmart's Universe of
Play in gaming platform Roblox. -
Not SyncedWalmart's marketing chief, William White,
-
Not Syncedsaid the company will use Roblox
as a testing ground -
Not Syncedas it considers other moves in
the metaverse and beyond. -
Not SyncedDefinitely makes it sound like they're
using this opportunity -
Not Syncedto sort of experiment on children.
-
Not SyncedWhich I guess makes sense as to why
they're not using the word "children." -
Not SyncedCause there's lots of laws against
advertising to children. -
Not SyncedBut there are no laws,
-
Not Syncedas far as I know,
-
Not Syncedabout advertising to young shoppers.
-
Not SyncedAh, I just remembered,
-
Not Syncedthat's my favorite show.
-
Not SyncedMy favorite Big Bang
Theory spin-off. -
Not SyncedYoung Shopper.
-
Not SyncedThe retail giant's first foray
into the virtual world -
Not Syncedwill feature a blimp that drops toys,
-
Not Synceda music festival with hot artists--
-
Not SyncedI hope they mean, like,
-
Not Syncedsexy.
-
Not SyncedThe most ATTRACTIVE artists
we could find. -
Not SyncedYassified Van Gogh.
-
Not Synced-- a bunch of different games,
-
Not Syncedand a store of virtual merchandise,
or "verch" -- -
Not SyncedI think I wanna throw up from
reading that sentence. -
Not Synced-- which matches what customers
may find in Walmart's stores -
Not Syncedand on its website.
-
Not SyncedWalmart is trying to make
themselves seem SO COOL to children. -
Not SyncedA blimp that drops toys and
music festivals? -
Not SyncedKids that grow up going
to Walmart Land in Roblox -
Not Syncedare gonna be so disappointed the
first time they actually go to a Walmart. -
Not SyncedThey're gonna walk in,
-
Not Syncedthere's like a small cowboy kid
yodeling in the corner, -
Not Syncedin another corner there's an employee
in a physical altercation with a customer. -
Not SyncedThey're like bashing
the customer's head in, -
Not Syncedthe poor kid's is like,
-
Not Synced"Where's the blimp that drops toys?"
-
Not SyncedFor now, Walmart won't make money
from its immersive experiences. -
Not SyncedGamers can earn tokens and other rewards
-
Not Syncedto put towards virtual
merchandise on Roblox. -
Not SyncedBrands like L.O.L Surprise! and
Skullcandy headphones -
Not Syncedwere included in the experiences based on
-
Not Syncedtheir popularity with Roblox's
younger audience of gamers. -
Not SyncedStill not using the word "children."
-
Not SyncedNo, now they're young gamers.
-
Not SyncedWalmart COULD make money from it
in the future-- -
Not SyncedOh.
-
Not SyncedYou think?
-
Not SyncedYou think Walmart MIGHT somehow
be trying to find out a way to make money -
Not Syncedfrom this?
-
Not Synced(scoffs)
-
Not SyncedI don't know man.
-
Not SyncedSeems a little far-fetched to me.
-
Not SyncedI kind of assumed they were doing this
-
Not Syncedpro bono.
(bass-boosted buzzing) -
Not SyncedUniverse of Play has games that feature
items from Walmart's top toy list -
Not Syncedfor the holiday season, like Razor
scooters and Paw Patrol -
Not Syncedand Jurassic World characters--
a potential nudge -
Not Syncedto get Roblox users to ask for them.
-
Not SyncedA potential nudge?
-
Not SyncedHas the person who wrote this article
-
Not Syncedever heard of Walmart?
-
Not SyncedOr like, business?
-
Not SyncedThey're showing really popular products
-
Not Syncedto kids in a really popular kids' game.
-
Not SyncedMaybe that could be to get them to
BUY the products FROM WALMART. -
Not SyncedWalmart Land has an obstacle course
-
Not Syncedof oversized items from the retailer's
Gen Z-focused beauty brands, -
Not Syncedsuch as skin-care products from Bubble
-
Not Syncedand makeup from Uoma by Sharon C.
-
Not SyncedIt's crazy that even in the metaverse
-
Not Syncedcorporations are trying to
convince you that -
Not SyncedYou Are Ugly.
-
Not SyncedYou're a fully digital avatar and
Walmart's still like, -
Not Synced"We can still tell you're uglyyy!
-
Not SyncedHellooo! You need to buy virtual makeup!
-
Not SyncedWe just talked to your smart fridge and
it told us you're uglyyy~" -
Not SyncedTo be fair, of course your Roblox
character needs makeup. -
Not Synced(screaming effect)
They're all hideous. -
Not SyncedThere's no way a Roblox character's
-
Not Syncedever going to conform to
traditional beauty standards. -
Not SyncedThey have, like, pitch-black doll eyes.
-
Not SyncedAlright guys, I don't know about you,
-
Not Syncedbut I'm ready.
-
Not SyncedMy young shopper mind is ready
to be advertised to. -
Not SyncedLet's hop into this game.
-
Not SyncedAnd so I hopped
-
Not Syncedinto this game.
-
Not Synced(claps)
(cool synth music plays) -
Not SyncedI have never played Roblox before.
-
Not SyncedSo unfortunately, even though Walmart is
-
Not Syncedadvertising this as
a metaverse experience, -
Not Syncedit's not in VR.
-
Not SyncedI kind of thought that every metaverse
experience takes place in VR, -
Not Syncedbut I guess metaverse just means
it's in the computer. -
Not SyncedI don't know how that's different
from like, walmart.com. -
Not SyncedThat's in the computer, is that
not the metaverse? -
Not SyncedSince the game is not in VR and I
wanted to still wear a cool headset, -
Not SyncedI'm gonna be wearing these cool
gamer glasses -
Not Syncedinstead of a VR headset.
-
Not SyncedAnyway, I have, um
-
Not Syncedactually I have no idea how Roblox works.
-
Not SyncedIt took me a minute to figure out
how to actually get into Roblox -
Not Syncedand start playing in
Walmart's world of play. -
Not SyncedI guess there's all these worlds here.
-
Not SyncedI wonder if Walmart Land
is in here somewhere. -
Not SyncedSurvival.
-
Not SyncedProbably not gonna be in there.
-
Not Synced"Yeah, Walmart Universe of Play,
-
Not Syncedthe new SURVIVAL game.
-
Not SyncedTry not to get MURDERED in our-
-
Not Syncedin the new Walmart Land."
-
Not SyncedApparently Roblox isn't just one game,
-
Not Syncedit's like a million different games.
-
Not Synced"Don't Call at 3 AM"
-
Not Syncedand it's a picture of Dwayne
"The Rock" Johnson. -
Not Synced"Squid Game."
-
Not Synced"Last to Leave," it's like a
Mr. Beast video within Roblox. -
Not SyncedWhat is Roblox?
-
Not SyncedWhat IS...
-
Not SyncedRoblox
-
Not Syncedanyway?
-
Not SyncedEventually I found Walmart Land
-
Not Syncedin the Recommended For You tab.
-
Not SyncedThey know why I'm here.
-
Not SyncedNew to Walmart Land?
-
Not SyncedYes.
-
Not SyncedWell, welcome!
-
Not SyncedIt's a place where inspiration
starts with play, -
Not Syncedincluding mini games, challenges,
an obby, and more-- -
Not SyncedAn obby?
-
Not SyncedAm I supposed to know what that is?
-
Not SyncedIs that Roblox lingo?
-
Not SyncedOr is that just a, like, a word in
the English language that I don't know? -
Not SyncedOh, this is helpful.
-
Not SyncedIs obby a word?
-
Not SyncedYeah, obby is a valid English word.
-
Not SyncedOkay, what does it mean though?
-
Not SyncedThe hell is an obby?
-
Not SyncedOh!
-
Not SyncedIn Roblox, it's an obstacle course.
-
Not SyncedExplore Electric Island!
-
Not SyncedPlay Netflix Trivia
-
Not Syncedhosted by Noah Schnapp??
-
Not SyncedWait.
-
Not SyncedThe dude from Stranger Things?
-
Not SyncedIs hosting a game in Walmart Land?
-
Not SyncedCompete in the Dance Off Challenge.
-
Not SyncedMake beats in the DJ--
-
Not Syncedokay, this place actually...
-
Not Syncedthis place actually might
be kinda cool. -
Not SyncedThat's right, it MIGHT.
-
Not SyncedNow there's some cool-sounding
stuff in here, -
Not Syncedlike a giant cosmetics obstacle course,
-
Not Syncedbut what I'm really interested in
-
Not Syncedis Noah Schnapp hosting
trivia in Roblox. -
Not SyncedHow is he just IN Walmart Land?
-
Not SyncedIs he just playing Roblox all the time?
-
Not SyncedJust sitting there waiting to ask people
questions about Netflix? -
Not SyncedHow much are they paying him for this?
-
Not SyncedThere's no wrong way to play!
-
Not SyncedI bet I can prove you wrong, buster.
-
Not SyncedLet's see how long it takes me
to get banned from this world. -
Not SyncedThen we'll find out if there's
a wrong way to play, won't we? -
Not SyncedSo this is Walmart Land.
-
Not SyncedMy initial impressions of the game were
-
Not Syncednot great.
-
Not SyncedSo this is me.
-
Not SyncedSee, the thing I don't get,
-
Not Syncedokay, this isn't even, this isn't
-
Not Synceda thing about Walmart Land specifically.
-
Not SyncedBut why's this game so ugly?
-
Not SyncedDIH!
-
Not SyncedDIH!
-
Not SyncedDIH! DIH! DIH! DIH!
-
Not SyncedThis video's just gonna be me discovering
-
Not Syncedthe horrors of Roblox.
-
Not SyncedIt's not even gonna have anything
to do with Walmart anymore. -
Not SyncedWhat the fuck?
-
Not SyncedCheck how loud the game is.
-
Not SyncedUH!
-
Not SyncedIt's about this loud.
-
Not SyncedUH!!
-
Not SyncedI knew I couldn't go see Noah
in this wretched default outfit, -
Not Syncedbut lucky for me, Walmart Land
-
Not Syncedhas a virtual store.
-
Not SyncedOoh, there's a store, let's go over there.
-
Not SyncedI can buy some Walmart jeans!
-
Not SyncedWhere you can shop for clothing from
real life clothing brands like Bonobos. -
Not SyncedWide-leg jeans,
-
Not SyncedBone-a-bose sweatpants.
-
Not SyncedIs that how you pronounce it?
-
Not Synced(dark piano music)
I looked it up afterwards and it is not. -
Not SyncedBonobos.
-
Not SyncedBut that wouldn't stop me from
mispronouncing it -
Not Syncedthe entire time I played this game.
-
Not SyncedI guess I need coins to buy some
-
Not SyncedBONABOSE sweatpants.
-
Not SyncedI don't think I've ever met anyone
that's actually been wearing an article -
Not Syncedof Bona--
-
Not SyncedBone--
-
Not SyncedBonny--
-
Not SyncedBonaboe clothing.
-
Not SyncedBut I'm gonna go and get some.
-
Not SyncedThere's a couple different ways you
can collect tokens to buy Bonobos clothing -
Not Syncedin Walmart Land.
-
Not SyncedFirst, as we know, there's a
blimp that drops toys. -
Not SyncedOkay, there's a thing at the top
that says "Next Blimp," -
Not Synceda minute and a half away.
-
Not SyncedOh, there it is!
-
Not SyncedTake me with you.
-
Not SyncedI want to go in the blimp.
-
Not SyncedExcept as far as I can tell,
-
Not Syncedit ever only drops cold hard cash.
-
Not SyncedOokayyy.
-
Not SyncedI just got 82 surprise coins.
-
Not SyncedOkay, sick, so it dropped some coins.
-
Not SyncedDidn't drop any walmart.com T-shirts
or anything, -
Not Syncedso a little underwhelming, but.
-
Not SyncedThese coins will make do.
-
Not SyncedI did get distracted from my mission
to buy some sweatpants -
Not Syncedwhen I realized there was
a fight going on in the chat. -
Not SyncedLooks like there's a bit of a dispute
happening in the chat. -
Not SyncedIt's the same person who
commented over and over. -
Not SyncedNo.
-
Not SyncedThis is my monorail.
-
Not SyncedOff.
-
Not SyncedWait for the next one.
-
Not SyncedWAIT FOR THE NEXT ONE!
-
Not SyncedOFF!
-
Not SyncedHoly shit.
-
Not SyncedThere's a monorail in this game?
-
Not SyncedHow do I hop on this thing
to piss this guy off? -
Not SyncedI was told there's no wrong way to
play, so I'm assuming that -
Not Syncedhopping on this guy's monorail
just to piss him off is cool? -
Not SyncedI said,
-
Not Synced"I'm waiting to get on your monorail.
I'm so excited." -
Not Syncedand he said,
-
Not Synced"No. Wait for the next one."
-
Not Synced(badass rebellious rock music)
-
Not SyncedLet's go.
-
Not SyncedBut I guess he was pretty
serious about it, -
Not Syncedbecause by the time the monorail
came around, he was gone -
Not Syncedand I never heard from him again.
-
Not SyncedWow, what a beautiful view
I have of Walmart Land. -
Not SyncedTrying to sort of get a good
vantage point to get a good look -
Not Syncedfrom the monorail at Walmart Land.
-
Not SyncedCan I sort of zoom out and just get a
really good bird's eye view-- -
Not SyncedNope, okay.
-
Not SyncedNow I'm looking at my own
-
Not Syncedtaint.
-
Not SyncedSort of wanted to look
at Walmart Land instead. -
Not SyncedWait, how do I have 200 coins now?
-
Not SyncedWhat happened here?
-
Not SyncedHow did I get that many coins?
-
Not SyncedI still don't know.
-
Not SyncedWatching the video back, I'm just
standing on the monorail -
Not Syncedand I gain 100 coins for no reason.
-
Not SyncedI don't know but it's time to go buy
-
Not Syncedsome frickin' PANTS!
-
Not SyncedPants, pants, pants, pants,
pants, pants, pants! -
Not SyncedGuys, I'm gonna level with you,
I didn't buy the pants. -
Not SyncedIn fact, I didn't buy
any Bonobos clothing. -
Not SyncedI LOOKED at the Bonobos clothing.
-
Not SyncedOh, I can buy shirts too?
-
Not SyncedWell, hold on, this changes everything!
-
Not SyncedThey've got Bonobos Ssshweater Blue.
-
Not SyncedThat's that sad feeling you get
when you put on your Bonobos sweater. -
Not Synced(laughing) Got the
Bonobos sweater blues, man. -
Not SyncedBut then I found something that I thought
-
Not Syncedwas a little more likely to impress Noah.
-
Not SyncedOh, and they have
Stranger Things stuff, too. -
Not SyncedDude, I could dress up as Eleven--
-
Not SyncedOh wait, let me try it on.
-
Not SyncedAnd here I am.
-
Not SyncedAnd why am I not wearing it?
-
Not SyncedExcuse me.
-
Not SyncedEXCUSE ME.
-
Not SyncedMaybe this is just Roblox as a whole,
-
Not Syncedbut Walmart Land was
generally very glitchy. -
Not SyncedHow do I put on this freaking dress?!
-
Not SyncedI have a feeling it's in this bag,
-
Not Syncedbut I-- there's sort of like a list
of players in the way that I can't-- -
Not Syncedso I can't click on the bag.
-
Not Synced(growling) Let me click on
the goddamn BAG. -
Not SyncedWhen I bought this Eleven costume,
-
Not Syncedand I went into my inventory,
it said it was already equipped, -
Not Syncedbut it wasn't, so I had to like,
-
Not Syncedunequip it and then reequip it
-
Not Syncedand then just like, wait a couple seconds
-
Not Syncedfor it to show up on my body.
-
Not SyncedLET'S
-
Not SyncedGO!!!
(cheerful electronic music playing) -
Not SyncedDUDE!
-
Not SyncedI just turned into Millie Bobby Brown
-
Not Syncedfrom a Millie Bobby Clown.
-
Not SyncedCan you dance in this game?
-
Not SyncedMaybe someone in the chat
can help me. -
Not SyncedIt's time to see how kind the
people of Roblox are, I guess. -
Not SyncedOh!
-
Not SyncedYou can dance in Roblox, but there's
certain games that you can't dance in. -
Not SyncedWell surely you can dance in
Walmart Land, -
Not Syncedit's the best place in the goddamn world.
-
Not Synced(ominous THUD sound)
-
Not SyncedThey said,
-
Not Synced"I tried and it didn't work."
-
Not SyncedExcusez-moi.
-
Not SyncedThere's supposed to be, like, a dance
rave here, isn't there? -
Not SyncedAnd you're not allowed to dance?
-
Not SyncedThere's a music concert,
a music festival, -
Not Syncedand you're just meant to
stand there like this? -
Not Synced(cheerful electronic music playing)
-
Not SyncedWoah. ColdAtlantic sent me
a friend request. -
Not SyncedSure, dog. I'll be anyone's friend.
-
Not SyncedAs long as they can teach me
how to freakin' play this game. -
Not SyncedSo it looks like there's some
areas of Walmart Land -
Not Syncedthey have not fleshed out yet.
-
Not SyncedThere's a bunch of bubbles
that just say "Coming soon." -
Not SyncedSo they're keeping some hype alive
for Walmart Land. -
Not SyncedAs if there wasn't enough already, y'know?
-
Not SyncedWhile searching for Noah, I came across
-
Not Syncedthe cosmetics obby.
-
Not SyncedThe goal is simple, just try to
get to the end of the obby. -
Not SyncedAlright.
-
Not SyncedI thought I'd give it a go in
an effort to, I don't know, -
Not Syncedearn some extra tokens.
-
Not SyncedUh! Uh, uh-
-
Not Syncedoh God!
-
Not SyncedBut little did I know
-
Not Syncedthis obstacle course
-
Not Syncedwould ruin me.
-
Not Synced(rock music playing)
-
Not SyncedFuck! Shit!
-
Not SyncedI hate Walmart Land now.
-
Not SyncedI don't wanna buy any of
these products at all! -
Not SyncedWhat is this?!
-
Not SyncedOW!
-
Not SyncedAm I just bad at this?
-
Not SyncedEH!
-
Not SyncedFucking. Shit.
-
Not SyncedI swear to God,
-
Not Syncedthis is harder than it looks, gang.
-
Not SyncedOnly an adult could beat this, for sure.
-
Not SyncedAnd even then, y'know, I mean,
-
Not SyncedI'm a-- I'm a grown-up, and I'm
-
Not Synceddefinitely being given a run for my
-
Not Syncedmo-- FUUUCK!!!
-
Not SyncedSome advertising this is, WALMART.
-
Not SyncedYou see what you've done?
-
Not SyncedYou've turned a lifelong loyal customer
-
Not Syncedinto a pissed off Lego guy!
-
Not SyncedEgh, this is getting... getting
kinda hard to watch. -
Not SyncedHonestly I would much rather be
watching an ad for ExpressVPN right now! -
Not SyncedWhile I'm getting absolutely
dominated by this beauty obby, -
Not Syncedlet me tell you how YOU can avoid getting
-
Not Synceddominated by your
internet service provider -
Not Syncedby using ExpressVPN.
-
Not SyncedUGH!!!
-
Not SyncedYou see, in the US, it's legal
for your internet service provider -
Not Syncedto sell your data to other companies.
-
Not SyncedThey can keep track of every
website you've ever visited, -
Not Syncedevery product you've looked at
buying in the past month, -
Not Syncedand sell it to advertisers.
-
Not SyncedIf they wanted to, they could
sell it to Walmart. -
Not SyncedOh my GOD.
-
Not SyncedI'm never going to Walmart again.
-
Not SyncedBut ExpressVPN puts a stop to this
-
Not Syncedby rerouting 100% of your network traffic
-
Not Syncedthrough their secure, encrypted server.
-
Not SyncedExpressVPN also helps you unblock content
-
Not Syncedthat's not available in your area.
-
Not SyncedFor example, Laura and I are both
-
Not Syncedabsolutely rabid fans of Survivor.
-
Not SyncedBut a few weeks ago, Laura and I
were on vacation in Europe, -
Not Syncedwhere they did not have Survivor on Hulu.
-
Not SyncedBut by turning on ExpressVPN, (which is
very easy to do, -
Not Syncedyou just do it in one click)
-
Not Syncedand changing my server location to the US,
-
Not Syncedwe're able to watch Survivor in our hotel.
-
Not SyncedAnd even when you're not traveling,
-
Not Syncedthere's tons of shows
you can unlock on Netflix -
Not Syncedsimply by switching your location.
-
Not SyncedI think I'll just chill
here for a little bit. -
Not SyncedHe looks comfortable here and I
don't wanna risk falling, -
Not Syncedit seems like a,
-
Not Syncedkind of a cool place to hang out.
-
Not SyncedExpressVPN has the fastest speeds,
-
Not Syncedthey're consistently ranked
the number one VPN -
Not Syncedby sources like CNET,
Tech Radar, The Verge, and more, -
Not Syncedso if you wanna found out how you can
get 3 months of ExpressVPN for free, -
Not Syncedthen head on over to

-
Not SyncedThat's E-X-P-R-E-S-S-V-P-N.com
slash Danny Gonzalez. -
Not SyncedThank you to ExpressVPN for
sponsoring this video -
Not Syncedand thank you to you guys
for checking out ExpressVPN, -
Not Syncedand now please God,
can I finish this obby? -
Not SyncedWhere's the end? Is that the end?
-
Not Synced(grand, momentous string music)
-
Not SyncedWheeee!
-
Not SyncedLET'S
-
Not SyncedGO!!!!
-
Not SyncedLET'S GO!
-
Not SyncedWe're back, baby! We did it.
-
Not Synced250 coins, by the way.
-
Not SyncedSo I'm basically rich now.
-
Not SyncedOh my god.
-
Not Synced(laughing) That look so
much longer than it should have, holy cow. -
Not SyncedThey say the night is darkest
just before the dawn, -
Not Syncedand I have to say in this case,
-
Not Syncedthat was correct,
-
Not Syncedbecause right after this obstacle course,
-
Not SyncedI found Electric Island--
-
Not SyncedElectric Island looks kinda
fun, let's go there. -
Not Synced--and by extension, Noah Schnapp.
-
Not SyncedOkay, what is there
to do on Electric Island? -
Not SyncedPlay Netflix Trivia hosted
by Noah Schnapp. -
Not SyncedI have a feeling it's just, like,
a bot that says he's Noah Schnapp. -
Not SyncedBut it'd be crazy if it was actually him.
-
Not SyncedIt'd be crazy if it wasn't even, like,
-
Not Synceda Roblox character,
-
Not Syncedit was just, like, him in the game.
-
Not SyncedI looked around for a little bit
trying to find this guy, -
Not Syncedand I gotta say,
-
Not Syncedthe name "Electric Island" makes
this place sound a lot more fun -
Not Syncedthan it actually is.
-
Not SyncedAlright, I'm already seeing something
that looks pretty fun, Electric Island. -
Not SyncedA pool party.
-
Not SyncedLet's go, dude. Let's go, let's turn up!
-
Not SyncedOkay, there is no one here.
-
Not SyncedYou know, for the fun
and totally happening place -
Not Syncedthat they made it
seem like Electric Island -
Not Syncedand more broadly Walmart Land would be,
-
Not Syncedit doesn't seem like there's
that many people here. -
Not SyncedFeels kinda... lonely.
-
Not SyncedDoes it show how many people are in here?
-
Not Synced18, 19, 20, 21, 22.
-
Not SyncedThere's 22 people here in Walmart Land.
-
Not SyncedSo this looks like the gigantic stage
where huge concerts take place -
Not Syncedand everyone stands still and watches.
-
Not SyncedThis place is electric during live events!
-
Not SyncedI doubt it.
-
Not SyncedI highly doubt it.
-
Not SyncedElectric Island is a strange
and mysterious place. -
Not SyncedMaybe I-- Woah! What's going on?
-
Not SyncedAnd they did a damn good job
of hiding Noah Schnapp. -
Not SyncedAlright, where's Noah Schnapp at?
-
Not SyncedLet me talk to Noah Schnapp, dude.
-
Not SyncedWhere's Noah Schnapp?
-
Not SyncedNoahhhh?
-
Not SyncedI want to play some
Netflix Trivia with youuu. -
Not SyncedBut eventually, I made it
-
Not Syncedto the trivia floor.
-
Not SyncedThere we go!
-
Not SyncedI found an elevator.
Netflix Trivia, please. -
Not SyncedI feel closer to Noah than ever before.
-
Not Synced(Netflix's reverbing "duh-dun" sound)
-
Not Synced(Noah) Hey, what's up everyone,
-
Not SyncedI'm Noah Schnapp, and you might know me
-
Not Syncedas Will Byers from Stranger Things.
-
Not Synced(Danny) It's actually him!
(Noah) Anyway, today -
Not Syncedwe're gonna have some fun playing
Netflix Trivia here in Walmart Land. -
Not SyncedThere are 3 categories you choose from,
-
Not Syncedone about Stranger Things,
another about Outer Banks, -
Not Syncedand a third called "Surprise Me."
-
Not Synced(Danny) You know, something tells me
he wasn't actually IN Walmart Land. -
Not SyncedThere weren't too many blank white walls
that I saw in Walmart Land. -
Not SyncedHe said, like, "I hope we're all
having fun in Walmart Land" -
Not Syncedlike he was also there.
-
Not SyncedHe didn't even look
like a Roblox character. -
Not SyncedNow the only thing left to do
-
Not Syncedwas play some Stranger Things
trivia with my boy Noah. -
Not SyncedWhat sport does Lucas
play at Hawkins High? -
Not SyncedFootball...?
-
Not SyncedFuck!
-
Not SyncedOh no, I forgot I don't
watch Stranger Things! -
Not SyncedI didn't know the answers to
any of these questions! -
Not SyncedWhich of the following is
a real quote from Argyle? -
Not SyncedWho is Argyle?
-
Not Synced5 coins
-
Not Syncedfor like 30 minutes of work
trying to find Will-- -
Not Syncedoh, sorry, not Will.
-
Not SyncedNoah is his real name in real life.
-
Not SyncedAnd I get 5 measly coins.
-
Not SyncedI kinda felt like all
the kiddos in Season 1 -
Not Syncedtrying to find this dude.
-
Not SyncedAnd I finally do and I get 5 coins.
-
Not SyncedI-- At this point I've gotta pretty
much be the richest person -
Not Syncedin Walmart Land, so.
-
Not Synced(electronic-sounding piano keys play)
-
Not SyncedI think I'm just gonna head to the store
-
Not Syncedand spend all of my money
-
Not Syncedand then be done.
-
Not SyncedSo I got some Bonobos Sweater Blues
-
Not Syncedand some Bonobos Sweatpants.
-
Not SyncedAnd let's just see how I look.
-
Not SyncedAnd they didn't appear on my character--
-
Not SyncedThat's not the sweater I just bought.
-
Not SyncedIs this game broken?
-
Not SyncedOh, there we go.
-
Not SyncedBut now what happened to my pants?
-
Not SyncedThe sweater's on, but
my blue pants are not. -
Not Synced--And then I quit the game.
-
Not SyncedWell guys, I think I've
played enough Roblox -
Not Syncedfor today and the rest of my life.
-
Not SyncedI hope you enjoyed this in-depth look
-
Not Syncedat Walmart's first steps
into the metaverse. -
Not SyncedI'll see you guys next time,
-
Not Synceduh-buh-bye.
